Hey. Great blog you got going. :)How did you find the ST72-860? I have one of those and find it is quite good but focus on the sides is a bit weak. Mine also needs a flyback :(Do you have any pictures of the original flyback in the unit you have?

I have the contrast down to reduce blurriness. TV was good but I guess its on its way to the dump now. I also have a Hantarex monitor with a videocolor A66EAS00X01 but have no idea what model is the chassis. Picture seems quite good but needs some adjustments for overscan. Seems to have a decent amount of pots. The blacks are not as good as the grundig though.

Again great blog and awesome insight into the different type of tubes. Im going to take your idea and mod the hantarex with outside pots. :)

Good pickups! I know this is an old post, but I have 4 Loewe TVs that I want to recap. Do you guys have any pointers on where to buy caps? Is there any kits out threre or is it a matter of writing all the values down and picking them manually online?
